THE COTTON GROWERS*.
I
JPcrfuaDt to a call issued dv \ ice i
President D M Cros&on, a number
of 'he representative farmers of the
diff ?renfc sectior 8 jf Lexington county,
met in the court bouse, in this place,
last Saturday, for the purpose of or
ganizing a branch of the Southern
C jtton Grower's Protective A^socisti
>n.
Toe meeting jwas called to order
by I>r. Croeeon, who made a clear
statement as to the object of the As
frociation, and urged the importance
of Jtverei6ed crops so as to ruake the j
supplies necessary for home consumption
and a red jotion cf the cotton
acreige a surplus crop in order
that a remunerative price can be
commanded by the planter. Hi*
address was plain, praotical and full
to oveifl miag with logic and reason
We regret that our limited space will
not permit even a brit-f synopsis but
hope that we will be able to give
from time to time his views on the
subject At the conclusion of bis
address be resigned the Presidency
of the Association in this county and
Mr. G. A. Derrick was elected in hie
place and Mr. E. L Wingard oocupi
ed the secretary's desk.
M j)r J. H. Couots made a short,
. but practical addrese in which he
made a good point in illustration of
i' the evils aiieing from the tenant system
of farming and the incentive of
the tenant to raise more cotton than
supplies to meet bis obligations and
thereby increase the cotton acreage.
He wanted to know bow many present
leased lands to tenant sand several
responded in the affirmative. I^js
next question was an eye opener to
t io?e present and one that should be
eiven the most careful and thought
ful consideration of those landlords
who are delirious of reducing the
cotton acreage so as to meet the demand
of legitimate consumption only.
He asked what was the considers
tion for the rent of the land, and the
reply was that it was to be in so
many bales of cotton. He uen stated
bis own experience in renting land.
It was bis custom to rent only on
the cotton basis and he found that
as a rule, the rentor not only planted
eotton sufficient to meet the rent but
also be gave a lien which was to be
paid for with cotton aod Dot only
this, he put in more cotton, the proceeds
of which were to be applied to
? bis own necessities. The consequence
in pursuing this ruinous
practice, was that the market was
glutted at its early opening with
sufficit of cotton as well as duiing the
entire season, and those who were
notio a position to hold their cotton
were forced to sell it at a sacrihce to
meet their guano bills and other inIX?n
?\1 rt It "? r\ TT? WfiD k f\
UCVIiTUUrBS' llln i'liu uu n hoc iu
lay cff so touch ground to be planted
in cereals; so much in potatoes, so
much in cotton and so much in other
farm products, and requiring the
reDtor to agree-to this condition before
reDtiDg him land. He, on bis
part, agreed to take in payment for
the rent grain, peas, cotton aod so
on. He affirmed as bis belief Ibat
if the merchant who made advances
and other creditors of the rentor
would liquidate their claims by taking
in payment the same commodities
there would be an appreciative
decrease is tbe cotton acreage, ills
remarks were listened to with the
closest attention and seemed to
create a favorable impression on
those who rented lands.
The following resolutions were in
troduced by Dr. D. M. Crossoc:
Resolved, That this Association
expresses its hearty appreciation of
the fffort being made by Charleston
in the interest of the coming Exposition,
and that the county should send
a creditable exhibit to that exposition
and that as an evidence of our
earnestness the Chair appoint a
eommittee of three to serve with a
committee of the County Fair Association.
The following gentleimn j
were appointed: Dr. D M. C. ossor, j
Hon. W. H F. Rist, H. H Eleaz r.
Resolved, Is*. That, whereas, we,
the farmers of Lexington county,
knowing that the great hue and cry
entwined around our interest, iD
"Cotton Circles" and especially in
"Wall Street Cotton Exchange, in re
garde to the price of cotton, is
claimed to be based upon The Law
nf ruddIv and demand and that we
r f *-' .
are always confronted with Fuch I
expression?, as, "shiftless, iDdoWnt J
farmers." Yet producing au over- j
production of cotton aDd from a sore j
expeiience, we have realized the fact, J
that we can ohjbain more from a small j
cotton crop than a large one, and
knowing that it places the farmer in
a better condition to increase his
acreage in corn and small grain and
plant a greater amount of diversified ;
crops, that it is the sense of this
Association, that it is to our best \
interest, to reduce the acreage plant j
ml in cottoD, by one tbird and to j
turn (,ur attention more to planting
diversified crops
2nd. That we, na'izing tie fact, !
tbat it H iropirtant for us now, in
Older tbat we may obtain a fair
price for our cotton produced, tbat j
we take some active stfps towards ;
tbe handling and marketing our cot- ;
ton crop for tbe next season and bav- j
iog a mutual interest in tbe same, :
tbat we earnestly solicit tbe bearty i
Co operation of all farmers, news- j
n*iv>r?, merchant0, manufacturers
and hankers < f our county and state,
mid i hut we pledge ourselves in
union with all the cotton elates, in a
Cotton Grower** Protective Ashckmhiinn
urid \aiU wmk for nor mutual
bent fit, at tbe present time in the
planting of tbiH crop and iD tbe
handling and uaketing of our cott)n
in tbe coming fall and that we
shall demand a just proportion of
tbe profit deiiveu from tbe sales of
our cotton, wbicb is justly due tbe
producer, an it is tbe Youth's product
and we should reap tbe bc-nttit fiom
its production and sale.
3rd. That these resolutions are
respectively submited to all tbe j
farmers of our county, stute aud cotton
stetos aud to every class of citizens
interested iu the welfare of tbe
same, as out interests are the same
aud should be mutual and we solicit
a hearty and multitl co-operation in
ihtir t xecutiou.
4 b. Tbat this CoUDty Cotton
Growers' Protective Association, shall
meet front time to time, at tbe call of
tbo President, to discuss and ixecute
sucb plans as we deem worthy of
our attention aud what is to our
best interest.
The At'nuta Journal, of a recent
date, gave the following interesting
faots couceruing the marketing of
cotton aud tbe price iu reference to
the crop raised:
Present ruling prices for cotton to
be delivered in tbe fall months will
not justify more than 6 or Gi cents
for the farmers. It generally happens
tbat when eo much cotton is
coming ho market iu the fall months
prices btirnk, so it is within tbe
range of possibilities to see 4 cents
cotton again this fall, if the present
tendency of prices be maintained.
Farmers should always remember
that:
11;0OO,OOO bales at 5 cemts meanB
$275,000,003.
10,000,000 bales at G cents means
$300,000,000
9,000,000 bales at 7 cents means
$315,000,000.
8,000,000 bales at 10 cents
rneRDS $400,000,000
The smaller the crop the better
are the returns per acre.
Spinners are reducing consumption
because they complain of slack
trade and high prices for cotton.
Let the farmer reduce hi* production
accordingly, and in place of the
extra amount ot cotton let mm
plant grain, potatoes, vegetables,
watermelons, cine, sorghum and
rioe where possible.
Diveisification has already abundantly
proaered Southern farmers.
Keep it up.

To the EJitor of the Dispatch:
After quite a Beige of very changeable
and disagreeable weather,
Easter Sunday opens a typical spring
day, and the prophets tell us that
the course of the moon indicates
some warm sunny weather. We are
glad to hear this, and thankful to
the moon for bringing about this
much desired and needful chango.
K-irmers are proatlv behind with
? ? o W '
tbeir work and everything will be
hustle and hurry for the next few
weeks. Gardens are making quite a
poor showing for this date. We
still have hopes of fruit and what a
blessing it will be if our hopes are
realized.
Mr. Farrel Leitnor, who has been
iu Augusta for some tim->, bis returned
to Irrno. Mr. W. D D.nt
and wife, of Brookland and Mr. J.
D. Nuuamaker, of Columbia, are

Miss Tillie Nunamaker, of Columbia
Female College, has been called

Mr. F. N. Nunamaker, who is critic- H
ally ill at the home of his father,
Mr. I. H. Nuuamaker. Mex Smith,

Miss Blaucb Matbias and two of her (

this place, but now of Billentine, is ,

lumbie, also came up yesterday, i
Mrs. C. M. and Mrs. Perry Bouk j
night and others of Xawberry are j |
visiting here, and there are still j
otherf; but this shows what a popu ;
lar little town is ours, and lest we ;
worry our readers we will pass on to ;
something else.
Oar ecbool being largely patronized
by the surrounding country and
seedtime being on hand, the patrons
and trustees assembled and discontinued
the school at this place till
about the first of July, at which time
it is expected that it will be reopened.
It is the iuteution of our trustees
and patrons to enlarge and
otherwise improve our building so
as to make it amply accomtnodating
and try to secure the services of a
competent and experienced male
teacher for principal and a lady
assistant that will be fully equil to j
the requirements. We hops in this j
way to run school on a much improved
system, and thus greatly j
reduce the necessity for seuding our j
children away from home t; be educated.

Easter Services.
L:int Sunday wae a charming spriog
day jawt pueh an one tbat enticee the
people to t-pend the lime out ofdoorp
and enj >y tbe freshness of a new
born ppring; tbe fragrance of flowers
tbe pongs of bird* and warm genial
rays of tbe sun.
Ibe day which ia beld in grateful
repjembrmce of a liten ILrO? d b)
O iMJiiononf urcrr rtciinn.iiiiilinll ftf fl
name throughout this broad lacd
where the gospel of the Son of G x*,
the Priuce of Peace, the Saviour of
the World, is preached. It is the
day which established the truthfulness
of the Christian religion and
demonstrated beyond cavail that the
hope of the people of God in the
reality of a happy aod peaceful life
beyond tbe grave was not without
foundation Id fact and it bas been tbe
custom of these peculiar people to
commemorate tbe festival of Easter
with fitting ceremouies in their places
of worship.
Ia keeping with this cuufcom appropriate
services were held in the ?
Methodist and Lutheran churohes
last Sunday.
R-v. W D Q lick filled the pulpit
of the Mt-fcbodist church Sunday
morning and preached a fervid and
elcquent sermon from the Gospel of
St. Matthew where it is recorded
that "be ia not hert: for he ia
riseD, as he said." The line of argument
was that if Christ be not risen
then ia our faith vain and we are found
false witnesses of God; because we
have testified of God that be raised up
Cfirist whom he raised not up if bo it
be that the dead rise not The sermon
W88 listened to with marked at
tention by a small but an appreciative
congregation.
The pulpit of the Lutheran church
was occupied by the pastor, Ksv. J.
G. Graichen. The pretty little
church was tastefully and beautifully
decorated with fljwers and hot house
plants. The sermon of this eloquent
divine was very appropriate for the occasion
and at times the spes.kcr's words
were thrilling, earnest and pathetic,
and his description of the scenes
attending the coming forth of the
Lord of Hosts from the dead, amid
the quskiDg of the earth, the rending
of rock?, and the glorified presei.ce of
the angel of the Lord, was intensely
realistic; and the astonishment and
fear of Mary Magdalene and the
other Mtry who appeared at the
tomb of Carist on that momentous
Sabbitb morning with spices and
fankinceDses to embalm the body of
their dead master, to fiDd the stone
roiled away with an angel sitting
upon it whose countenance was like
lightning and wboee rainment was
white as snow, wac, impressive. The
lessons of bis sermon were gems of
thought aud bis application was graDd
and ennobling. To sit under tbe nin*
- - a
istratious of this consecrated man of
God is a treat to those who are seeking
the way to a better, a nobler, a
purer ami a higher life, and hie
teachings, to the truly pious, are
like messengers of love and a banediction
from off the attar of r.be
High Priest in that city on high, not
made with hands, eternal in the
beaveus. This occasion was also
oDe of Eister offering and the
collection was liberal. At tue conclusion
of the eermoQ the Lords
supper was administered to a large
number of communicants.
* ? - i? ? I iL
At ntgnt IQ6 cnnaren 01 iumr
Sunday school held appropriate services
before a large and appreciate
congregation, which consisted of
songs of r#-j lieing and hymns of triumph
to the Lord of Lords and the
King of Kings, who gave himself a
ransom to redeem a lost world aDd
reconcile fallen man and a righteous
God. This service was instructive
and elevating. Mr. C. M. Efird
made a few remarks which were ap
propriate and entertaining, and
thus closed an enjoyable occasion
which has doubtless left an impress
for good on the lives of many who
were pres? nt.
